Journal Entry: Thu Apr 24, 2008, 6:20 AM
New 4/24/08:

I got an award a little bit back on the Manitou Island series at WDC, from one of the...probably one or two people who might have actually read the entire thing, and he made mention of "over a million words" into the story or something. A million words?? So I copied and pasted the entire text of MI, RTMI, and the proofed portion of EFMI into the word processor and did word counts and added them up.

The series so far is at about 1.5 million words. And that's not counting almost half of EFMI, which is not proofed yet, nor the chapters which aren't even written yet (the story is unfinished)...nor BMI, which is what I intend to write afterwards.

One and a half million words? :O I had no clue I wrote that much. And that's just one storyline.

Of course, when I told my parents about this, all they had to say was "You should just end it" (and then what, just leave it hanging?) and "You should stop that story and start another" (what, another story you couldn't care less about??). They could at least PRETEND to be encouraging. :depressed:

About Me

I'm Tehuti (not my real name, of course). I post my photography, such as it is, here, not for critique but for other users' enjoyment. Feel free to use it as your desktop if you like, I know I do. :) My gallery is rather big, so please don't feel as if you have to browse the whole thing! Take note that ALL my graphic/image items (aside from Scraps of course) are kept in my "Featured" (default) gallery, so you won't miss anything except my writing, which is kept in a separate folder to the side. Nice and simple!

I try to always COMMENT when I fave, and I sometimes tend to raid people's galleries if I like their work. As a result my comments might get repetitive, but they're always sincere. Check out my faves section for lots of wonderful work! I don't mind faves without comments on my photography so go ahead. :) If you wish to fave a piece of writing or artwork of mine, however, please comment when you do so as I put a lot of work into those.

First and foremost I consider myself a WRITER, but as writing gains little exposure on DA, you won't find it in my featured/main gallery but rather in a folder. I specialize in fantasy, mythology, occult, and drama, especially in longer/multipart stories. I am NOT seeking publication and am not much interested in literary critique as my primary goal is simply to entertain. I LOVE feedback from people who are genuinely enjoying what I write, though, so if you like what you see, get as longwinded as you want! (Instead of merely, "Great story, write more!" please let me know exactly WHAT you thought was great...and be aware that I'm already writing more. :D ) Readers who can "read between the lines" and pick up on what I didn't directly state are the best kinds; that lets me know they're really reading!

I always love hearing from people interested in my writing or the same subjects I am (Egyptian and Ojibwa/Chippewa mythology, fantasy writing, and Mackinac Island primary among them). I don't usually reply to comments received here; it's nothing personal, I'm just very shy and don't see the point in posting a thank you to each "Great work!" If you want to hear back from me, please either message me or use my e-mail address which is provided in my profile here. I don't hear from people very much so when I do it's nice. And when they're interested in the same things I am, it's nicer! :D

Below for ease of browsing is a simplified index to most of my writing online. Please note these are in ALPHABETICAL ORDER according to storyline and their order does not denote importance. The Manitou Island storyline is in fact the one I've been putting the most work and time into and like hearing about the most. The D Is For Damien novels are being rewritten, so you might want to be aware of that before reading. These links will eventually be switched out with DA links as my writing is posted to this site.

I hope you enjoy your visit! :)
